I liked the layout of the course but the condition was unacceptable for the any amount of money. Many greens had damage and the fairways and roughs were shaggy and had many barren spots. The men's restroom was filthy and in dire need of a good cleaning and probably a remodeling. I would guess at one time it was a nice course but in it's present condition I would not return until improvements are made.

Course is in version good condition. I will say this, it’s nice but not worth $100 and I was told the price is going to $175 in January. I will not pay that for a round of golf. The course is a $75 course in season a$45 off season

Love this course. Too bad it’s so far out in the sticks. Worth the drive. Great condition. Pace of play was nearly 5 hours and we had a twosome in front of us. No ranger.

Quality golf

Heron Creek offers a quality set of three courses all of which are nicely done. There differences between the three which is a good thing. I would highly recommend Heron Creek to anyone looking for a nice course at a fair price. One of my favorites.

Second time in two weeks to play here. Pro shop lady was very unfriendly both times. Expressed her dislike for GolfNow. Greens were just punched so price should have been reduced as a result.

Post punching

Very nice layout. New course and still growing in. Fairways were excellent. Greens recently aerated and still sandy and slow. Will definitely come back when greens are healed. This could be a hidden gem.

Thank you for your feedback - we appreciate it. What you are seeing on our greens is "the price we pay" for overseeding the greens with poa trivialis for the winter season. The transition periods, both in the spring and fall are when the different grasses will become dominant on the greens. Needless to say the period in between, result in less than ideal conditions. We hope you will return once they have again filled in.

Great value

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to play this course which is completely private during the Florida golf season. Staff knew who I was from the time I stepped out of the car. Very impressive! Course was excellent. Fairways and greens were in Tour type condition. Great value, great course, great opportunity.

Wet but playable

Unfortunately the course was hit hard by two inches of rain the evening before I played. Cart path only. That said overall the course would be worth revisiting when dry. Fairways are a but tight. Greens were in good shape. Price was very affordable.

Continues to be one of my favorite courses

Improvements are ongoing and course continues to improve. In the three years I've been coming to Venice I always find Sarasota National a pleasure to play. The layout is challenging but fair and the greens are always in great shape.
